Climate data sets are currently measured on a scale of terabytes, and within a few short years are expected to be petabytes in size. This data is produced from sources ranging from supercomputing centers, where large-scale climate modeling and simulations are performed, to satellites that are recording and transferring data constantly. Many climate scientists and data managers struggle with data workflow. Without performance improvements, scientific productivity will suffer.

This Focused Technical Workshop, hosted by NOAA, brings together network experts with scientists in the domain of international climate sciences to discuss their most pressing network-related issues and requirements. The format is designed to encourage lively, interactive discussions with the goal of developing a set of tangible next steps for supporting this data-intensive science community.

Rachana Ananthakrishnan will present on the topic, "Climate Data Management Using Globus." Her presentation will be on Monday, July 14 at 4:15 p.m. Mountain Time.
